Inhaltsangabe

Except you repent, you will all likewise perish. – Luke 13:5

It is indifference that leaves people alone and allows them to go their own way. It is love, tender love, that warns them and raises the cry of alarm. The cry of “Fire! Fire!” at midnight might sometimes rudely, harshly, and unpleasantly startle a person out of his sleep, but who would complain if that cry was the means of saving his life? The words Except you repent, you will all likewise perish might at first seem stern and severe, but they are words of love, and they could be the means of delivering precious souls from hell.

  1. The nature of repentance: What is it?
  2. The necessity of repentance: Why is repentance needful?
  3. The encouragements to repentance: What is there to lead people to repent?

About the Author
John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) graduated from Eton and Oxford and then pursued a career in politics, but due to lack of funds, he entered the clergy of the Church of England. He was a contemporary of Spurgeon, Moody, Mueller, and Taylor and read the great theologians like Wesley, Bunyan, Knox, Calvin, and Luther. These all influenced Ryle’s understanding and theology. Ryle began his writing career with a tract following the Great Yarmouth suspension bridge tragedy, where more than a hundred people drowned. He gained a reputation for straightforward preaching and evangelism. He travelled, preached, and wrote more than 300 pamphlets, tracts, and books, including Expository Thoughts on the Gospels, Principles for Churchmen, and Christian Leaders of the Eighteenth Century. Ryle used the royalties from his writing to pay his father’s debts, but he also felt indebted to that ruin for changing the direction of his life. He was recommended by Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli to be Bishop of Liverpool where he ended his career in 1900.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) graduó de Eton y Oxford en Inglaterra y quería seguir una carrera en la política. Pero debido a la falta de fondos, entró en el clero de la Iglesia de Inglaterra. Era contemporáneo de Spurgeon, Moody, Mueller y Taylor. Además, leyó los libros de los grandes teológicos como Wesley, Bunyan, Knox, Calvin y Lutero. Todos éstos influyeron a Ryle y contribuyeron a su entendimiento y teología. Ryle empezó a escribir primero un librito informativo después de que ocurrió la tragedia del puente colgante Great Yarmouth, donde se ahogaron más de cien almas. Se reconocía como predicador directo y por predicar el evangelismo. Viajaba, predicaba, y escribió más de 300 folletos, libritos informativos y otros libros, incluso Pensamientos expositivos de los evangelios (Expository Thoughts on the Gospels) y Líderes cristianos del siglo XVIII (Christian Leaders of the Eighteenth Century). Aunque usó sus ganancias de autor para pagar las deudas de bancarrota de su padre, consideró esa ruina la voluntad de Dios porque cambió la dirección de su vida. El primer ministro Benjamín Disraeli recomendó que fuera designado el Obispo de Liverpool donde cumplió este puesto hasta 1900.
